So i believe I had nailed down the problem. My ppms are going in at 1400 and ph 5.5. it is running off at 500 PPM and ph of 6.8. My leaves are canoeing or tacoing and getting pale yellow and growing spindly. I have foliar sprayed with ro water and epsom salt and the prob seems to get better for a little while. So this tells me mg def right?
Well I think that my ph is high locking out nutes???
or
The coco I bought was crap, its pet grade, perhaps is still leaching all my nutes there fore making my plants def of mg.. ????
my last feeding was 10ml of cal mag per gallon. the rest was base nutes at full strength.

ReCWay - I am going through that same bullshit with Royal Gold's Basement mix.
Running Sour Diesel in 3 gal smart pots and they are all jacked up. Been flushing hardcore cause my last run off with GH 3 part was 1600ppm and going in was only 700! wtf...sprayed and sprayed and sprayed with epsom and nothing. The buds are getting frosty, thank god. Gave it a feed yesterday of the GH floralicious line and a full dose of calmag..
I know the fustration, i find when coco is new it will cause issues with salt buildup....they say pre rinsed but i always flush a shit load of phed water at 5.8 until the runoff is clear. What is your runoff look like??? coffee? I veg in 5 gal pots and then transplant after a 5 week veg into 10 gallon pots before i move the girls into flower. I will already have my coco in ten gallon pots about 2/3 the way full, i will water the coco with a half strength nutrient and a 5ml per gallon mix of bloom cal mag once a day for about a week with no plants!!! it had worked great for me!! this will totally leech the coco and precharge it for the transplant. During the transplant i water with only phed ro water and then go straight into a feeding pattern. I run veg.
5mls of cal mag
6mls of GH micro
9mls of GH bloom
1ml of roots accellorator
Flower same mix just add 5mls of soul synthetics big swell at week 5 im cutting the micro and adding sugaree..then flush with phed water for 10-14 days and the plants finish off great. yeilding a shit load of very dank primo bud .
